Is it just me or is Ellis falling down mock drafts?
 
Months ago he was the talk of the pre-draft landscape by kicking ass at the Senior Bowl. He had a slightly disappointing combine but a good pro day.

A lot of people had him going in the top five. Now I see him at 8 or 9 quite a bit.

What has Dorsey done to stay put while Ellis drops? Some people had Ellis over Dorsey awhile back. Have Dorsey's injury concerns even been addressed?

Its bc of the mock draft experts going on need instead of BPA, that and two teams (Jets and Pats) play a 3-4 and he doesnt fit that defense.

He's pretty much stayed at 9 or 10 in mock drafts the entire time.

like last week DraftHeadquarters.com cited that KC really has Ellis rated high on their draft and would draft if he's their, but since the possible Allen/Vkings trade came out it's suddenly Gholston.

Exactly. I never saw him rise above 5.

McDouche and Kiper were all over taking DE since its a major need now.

The hype on him has died down a bit since his Senior Bowl performance.

No way he falls past Cincinnati, and we may be secretly coveting him at #5. Personally, I'm still a bit concerned over his size and short arms.

its called dorsey is way better than ellis, i had ellis at 9 since the beggining of march, plus ellis sucked balls at combine

I disagree with that Dorsey and Ellis are pretty close to the same, Dorsey has more name hype.

Ellis sucked balls at the combine? You are a ****ing idiot.

Yeah, it's more about the teams than Ellis. If the mock draft people don't have the Chiefs taking him at 5, he automatically drops to the 8-9-10 range because NY and the Pats aren't likely spots for him.

I think Kiper and McShay, just to throw out two names, still have Ellis in their top 5-6 players.

Plus, everyone is looking at our OL needs, not considering that we have no push in the middle.

Plus, it's common knowledge that both Cincinnati and New Orleans need a DT badly.

I haven't seen him picked anywhere BUT #9 for the last month or so. I've looked at quite a few mocks, not hundreds, but quite a few. The Bengals get him every time.
